Benchmark 1:	COBA IF network. This benchmark consists of a network of IF neurons connected with COBA synapses, according to the parameters above. It is equivalent to the COBA model described in Vogels and Abbott (2005)
Benchmark 2:	CUBA IF network. This second benchmark simulates a network of IF neurons connected with CUBA synapses, which is equivalent to the CUBA model described in Vogels and Abbott (2005). It has the same parameters as above, except that every cell needs to be depolarized by about 10 mV, which was implemented by setting EL = −49 mV (see Vogels and Abbott 2005).
Benchmark 3:	COBA HH network. This benchmark is equivalent to Benchmark 1, except that the HH model was used.
Benchmark 4:	IF network with voltage-jump synapses. This fourth benchmark used voltage-jump synapses, and has a membrane equation which is analytically solvable, and can be implemented using event-driven simulation strategies.
